Berlin by mortiziia

If you’re about to leave or you’ve already arrived at your destination: don’t you think that the suitcase shrinks just before you start packing? In a while, loads of things have slipped into my head, things that I didn’t even think I would carry with me: for instance, the hairdryer, which my mother wants me to transport. I think it’s a good idea anyway, ‘cause winter in Marbella has nothing to do with winter in Berlin, so wet hair can cause troubles.
I’ve only put a few things inside the suitcase and it’s already half-full, unbelievable. I’ll have to stick my sleeping bag in the rucksack that I’ll use as clutch bag in my flight. The sleeping bag is a must to me, as I intend to use it as a blanket on the first days, and I may need it for future Erasmus trips. I reckon that I’ll just manage to squeeze everything together…if I leave clothes out! Lucky me, I won’t carry tons of clothes, ‘cause as I’ve said… my winter clothes here won’t be worth taking, I’ll have to buy almost everything there. I guess I’ll have to squeeze some clothes, loudspeakers and CD’s together inside the clutch bag, thus leaving enough space in the suitcase for the sleeping bag.
Today morning I’ve been to the bank, to pay the transport and administrative fees by bank draft. The cashier was new, and very young, so I thought that maybe he was a little clumsy due to nervousness, but after one-hour wait I began to wonder why the queue didn’t move. Gosh, the computer failed. It’s just my luck with computers. It was already past noon, and I left. I’ll try again tomorrow.
I fancied some olives, I have a weakness for them, so I’ve had a walk around the street market to buy some (they taste better than the ones that come in tins). On my way to the street market, my wretched bag has eventually died, breaking down in the middle of the street, so I’ve made good use of the opportunity and bought two new ones in the market.
I’m going to miss olives to death in Berlin if I don’t find them somewhere!
